I think you are arguing an abstract, as libertarians/objectivist like to do, to uncover some divine rule.
I argue in favor of protecting individual life-and-property rights. If it's not group "rights", what you're arguing is lost on me.
I support you 100% as we are apparently from the same school of thought, I was just pointing out that neo-Puritans have been battling Enlightenment Era classical liberals since the 1700s so I was suggesting that they (neo-Puritans-- secular Evangelicals and their close cousin the Christian Evangelical) are not a new phenomanon as a threat to liberties.
